Legacy Leadership Institute seeks applicants for June session

MOBILE, Alabama — The Legacy Leadership Institute is seeking applicants for its training program, which will be held June 18-22 on the campus of the University of South Alabama. A joint project of the Area Agency on Aging and USA’s Gerontology Program, the program provides free classes for 25 volunteers with a focus on aging issues and advocacy.

The Legacy Leadership Institute is designed to redefine and elevate the volunteer experience, building on the multiple skills retirees bring to volunteerism, and their wish to make a difference in their communities. It is available to residents of Mobile, Baldwin and Escambia counties served by the South Alabama Regional Planning Commission.

After the week of classes, volunteers will complete an internship with the Area Agency on Aging. For an application or information, contact Della Sanchez at 251-433-6541 or 1-800-243-5463, or dellasanchez@sarpc.org.
